Spaghetti - Allergy Free CookBook

Updated: Sep 19

As a child, I probably could have eaten spaghetti every day. Not healthy at all, since it is mostly a grain meal. As an occasional treat, it won't hurt. Of course, if I had my way, I'd make my spaghetti almost healthy with mushrooms, onions, peas, carrots and broccoli, along with the beef or turkey burger. Oh, and no tomato sauce. I know one person who cooks just the noodles and adds a bottle of Italian dressing and calls it spaghetti. I'd just call that Italian noodles. Though, I'll admit, early on, I combined three recipes for my recipe today.
